F1ELDEN AND scHwAB.
The jail was q gloomy place this morning.
The bailiff, prisoners, reporters and visit.
ors had outgrown the gruesome scene of
yesterday. A detail OF prisoners scrubbed
the Jail from top to bottom early this
morning. Mrs. Schwab together With her
two children and Mrs. schnaubelt,
and came about o o'clock,
Fielden end schyab were released from
their cells. Schwab brought down q stool
and conversed with his wife and mother
for nearly two hours. separated by iron
| bars and q wire netting. Mrs. Schwab was
clad in mourning in memory perhaps of the
previous days events. Before parting
Schwab fondly kissed his children many
times, and hugged them and retired to his
cell. Mrs. Schwab left weeping. At 10
! O'Clock Mrs. Fielden came in with her baby
| in her arms and accompanied by her little
girl and q neighbor. Mrs. Fielden cried q
great deal while talking with her husband.

Office. where J. A. Foster. one of their
counsel on the trial, talked to them and
| bid them goodbye.
OFF FOR JOLIET.
Two minutes after IL FieIden and Schwab
were handcuffed together, and also pair
locking them together, alter which they were
searched. Both prisoners requested that
their clothing and papers be sent to their
wives, which they were told would be done.
The men then made their way awkwardly
down the steps into the Jail court, their
walking being very much ,mpeded by the
shackles. Here they took hack, in which
were deputies, and were driven to the sta
tion and started on their way to Joliet
penitentiary.

JOLIET, Ill.,, November 12.-The train
reached Joliet depot at $50, and the con.
victed Anarchists were marched up the
graveled road to the penitentiary. Imme-
dia tely after their arrival therein, Rev. Mr..
Walter, the prison Chaplain, approached
them. and endeavored to learn their par
ticular religious creeds. Neither OF the men
seemed to receive the reverend gentleman
with any degree of friendship, and answered
him in nonchalant manner. Their conver-
sation was OF short duration, and Warden
McClaughrey soon directed the prisoners to
an inner room, where they were stripped
and bathed. After this they were given
striped suit and shorn of their long boards
and hair. The men presented a melancholy
look without their whiskers. Fieldeu was
given No. 1926 and Schwab No.
1927. They were then taken to
the weighing and measuring room
where Fielden tipped the beam at 100
pounds, and measured five feet six inches IN
height. Schwab weighed 1876 pounds and
measured five feet nine and one quarter
inches. The condemned men were then
ta ken to the solitary room where they
will remain until Monday when they will
be assigned to work. Warden McClaughrey
said. owing to their apparently feeble
condition, they would be put at easy work
for few months, when they would in sll
proba bility be given something more la bor-
ious. An enterprising museum man visited
the penitentiary this afternoon anxious to
procure the clothes which had been worn
by the convicted men. He didn't get them.

New YORK, November 12.-Information
was received by the Superintendent OF Po-
lice to day that body Of Anarchists had
rented hall for the purpose OF holding a
wake tonight il memory OF the dead An
archists- A squad of picked men was
sent to the hall with instructions to pre-
vent the meeting, if possible. The PRO-
prietcr was asked il he was aware OF the
nature OF the occasion for which the ball
had been rented, and replied in the mega
tive. Would you have rented it had you
known the use twas to be put tor No,
was the reply, Il want no Anarchists IN
my place.'' This was all the police desired:
They took possession "f the hall
for the purpose, they explained
whom the proprietor objected. So when
the Anarchists made their appearance
thew simply destroyed their tickets OF ad-
mission for which they had paid 25 cents
each and went awav. The room was
heavily draped in black. Big black rugs
covered the floor, and in the centre OF the
room were five black coffins. Arranged
| about the room were draped chairs. The
Anarchists snarled their displeasure at the
presence of the police and departed. They
went to Justus Schwab's place where they
passed the night drinking and cursing the
police.
